As Canada’s 18th prime minister, Mulroney was a figure who earned both admiration and criticism, leading the country through a tumultuous time with a bold vision that left an indelible mark on the nation’s history. His time as prime minister wascharacterized by a willingness to tackle challenging issues. One of Mulroney’s most notable accomplishments was signing the Canada–United States Free Trade Agreement (CUSFTA) and later the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). Brian Mulroney once remarked, “If your only objective is to be popular, you’re going to be popular, but you will be known as the Prime Minister who achieved nothing.” Despite losing political popularity and the 1993 election, Mulroney accomplished much during his tenure as Prime Minister. He was a prime minister who dared to dream big and take risks, for better or worse.
